We need different types of maps for various reasons. We need them to show us the information that we need to know. We use Physical Maps to show us the mountains, where rivers are located and also lakes. We use Political Maps for seeing states, borders, and capitals. We also use Climate Maps for looking at weather such as, rain, wind, humid continental, and if you are looking to see the dew point or other things, then you would use a Climate Map. We need these maps to help us with or locatons and items that are shown on these maps. They effect us on or lives and where we live, and if we were to move somewhere or even go on a vacation somewhere then you are wanting to see what is ahead of your move or vacation.
